The two verses quoted above nicely summarise, I think, the properattitude towards the word of God. The psalm teaches us that the Wordof God is part of our inheritance, our heritage, something we valueand treasure and something that brings us joy. I know at times itdoesn't always seem that way, but it is nevertheless true. The proverbexcites me, because it suggests to me that rather than have followerswho just sit inactively, it is one of the highest callings of men toactively search out the truths and secrets of God. To dig deep into itand bring out those treasures which God has hidden!

I sit here typing this quite excited, because, of the few definitethings I can say I hope for my life, being able to know well the Wordof God and know His secrets - to master the Word (if such a thing ispossible) is one of the greatest.

As I was praying a few days ago I started to feel this same excitementabout the Word of God an idea came into my mind. It occurred to methat it would be an amazing thing if this journey of discovery andhunt for the truths, secrets and person of God in the word, could bedone with others. To have an interchange with others who, likeminded,could say that the word is their joy and their heritage, and findthemselves priviledged as kings digging into its mysteries.

I do not know if any of you have had the same feeling or desire but asI started to think about this my excitement grew and I wondered ifsuch a thing might be possible. To form a group of individuals wholove the word of God and would love to together search out some of itsmysteries. To form a fellowship who would come together to take onthis challenge and calling of kings and experience the shared joy ofits discoveries.

And so, I have a proposal:

That, such a group be formed, who would enjoy searching through theScriptures with one another, and enjoying a fellowshipping in theword. Questions, and subjects could be put forth, ideas and thoughts,readings and experiences shared.
